The Crystal Library: Celestite & the Art of Inhabiting Liminal Space

In this intimate episode of The Crystal Library, Ashleigh shares the story of celestite, the crystal that quietly sparked her spiritual awakening.

Rather than focusing on textbook meanings, this episode explores celestite as a touchstone—a stone of grounding, remembrance, and return. Ashleigh reflects on postpartum struggle, rediscovering her mystical identity, and learning that science and spirituality don’t have to be opposites.

Celestite becomes a guide through liminal space—the in-between—revealing that we don’t always need to cross thresholds… sometimes we are meant to live within them.

In this episode:
Ashleigh’s first encounter with celestite during a pivotal trip

How the stone became an anchor during spiritual reawakening

Navigating identity, intuition, and suppressed magic

Living between science and mysticism

Why personal crystal connections matter more than traditional meanings

Reflection:
What threshold are you trying to cross that you might actually be meant to live in?

What becomes possible when the in-between becomes home?

From childhood obsession with the movie Romancing the Stone to claiming emerald as my crystal of 2026 - this is a deep dive into why emerald is THE stone of magic, vision, and transformation.

I explore the geology that reveals the magic, the Emerald Tablet's "as above, so below" teaching, and the medieval legend connecting emerald to both Lucifer's crown and the Holy Grail.

This isn't your typical heart chakra episode. This is about vision you can't unsee, exile that proves clarity, and what happens when a stone chooses you.

Fair warning: This episode is not gentle. If emerald is calling you this year, you'll understand why.

KEY TOPICS

• Romancing the Stone (1984) & my mom's costume jewelry ring
• The science: beryl + chromium = emerald (how "impurities" create value)
• The Emerald Tablet of Thoth: "As Above, So Below"
• Nicholas Pearson's The Witching Stones - essential emerald magic
• The Lucifer teaching: when the fallen stone becomes the Holy Grail
• What it means when vision gets you cast out
• Practical magic: working with emerald for 2026

KEY QUOTES

"Emerald doesn't give you vision. It stops you from pretending you don't already see."

"The emerald doesn't fall from Lucifer's crown as punishment. It falls because he chose vision over comfort."

"If you're feeling cast out of the safe crowd, that's not failure. That's proof you're seeing clearly."
